Talk Tight is Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever’s first release, and it was
originally released on CD in March of 2016 on Ivy League Records in the band’s
home country of Australia. Talk Tight
– a mini-album, or extended EP, if you will – garnered the band critical acclaim
in their home country and in the US, where Pitchfork gave the record an 8.0 and
described it like so:

Seven rip-roaring tracks that move by their
own logic, any one of which could be a single and all of which leave you
wanting more in the best way possible… Listening to these seven tunes, you
can easily trace a national lineage: the relentlessness of Radio Birdman, the
pop literacy of the Go-Betweens, the rambunctious energy of the Easybeats, and
the belief—shared with Courtney Barnett—that guitars are not just crucial to
the message but might very well be the message themselves.

This release
is the first time Talk Tight has been
available in the US, and the first time it is available on vinyl anywhere. The
band released their Sub Pop debut, The French
Press EP, in March of 2017, and they are currently working on their first full-length
album.
